BREAKING: The Pentagon is sending thousands of Marines to the Middle East. The same strategy used with the first wave of Marines sent to Vietnam.

You can bet your mortgage that Barron Trump isn't in that unit.

Trump is launching a ground invasion to prevent accountability for the Epstein files.

Should we expect a spike in bone spur diagnosisโ€™s from the millionaire and billionaire classes? Or perhaps since transgendered individuals canโ€™t be in the US military there will be a rush for that diagnosis by the wealthy?

ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose โ€˜targetsโ€™

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

I have a distinct feeling this may have more to do with Corey Lewandowski than anything to do with Kristi Noem's performances.

Noem snubbed from 'most powerful women' event as Trump orders staff to keep her 'away' Rachael Bade reports that Trump is done with demoted Homeland Security head Kristi Noem. โ€œA week after ousting his Homeland Security secretary, President Donald Trump has made it clear to staff and associates: Kristi Noem is not welcome,โ€ reports Bade on her โ€œInner Circleโ€ substack. โ€œThe president has told confidants and staff that he doesnโ€™t want to see Noem. โ€œHeโ€™s pโ€”โ€”ed at her and Corey [Lewandowski], and did not want her at the event yesterday,โ€ an anonymous source close to the White House inner circle told Bade. The former Politico writer and ABC News correspondent reports the former secretary and her team have already been informed in recent days that she is โ€œnot on the guest list for a couple of events at the White House, including Thursdayโ€™s Womenโ€™s History Month celebration, as well as todayโ€™s event for rodeo champions.โ€ The snub allegedly arrived on the heels of that Thursday meeting Trump had with โ€œthe most powerful women in his orbit in the East Roomโ€ in relation to a Womenโ€™s History month celebration. Featured at the meeting were First Lady Melania Trump, Second Lady Usha Vance and Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, among others. Even Attorney General Pam Bondi and Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-Deremer were โ€œspotted.โ€ Now that Noem is out, Bade reports her and Lewandowskiโ€™s detractors in the administration are leaking โ€œunflattering storiesโ€ about them, โ€œparticularly regarding the dubious process used to award hundreds of millions in contracts.โ€ Bade notes that many of these leaks have skipped over left-leaning press and gone straight to right-leaning publications Trump frequently reads. โ€œGOP heavyweights are now circling,โ€ reports Bade. โ€œHouse Homeland Security Chair Andrew Garbarino (R-N.Y.) told the New York Post that heโ€™s investigating how contracts were won under Noemโ€™s tenure. So too is House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), one of Trumpโ€™s most loyal foot soldiers on the Hill.โ€ But a Noem defender called the claim โ€œfake news,โ€ said Bade, arguing that Noem spoke to Trump as recently as Thursday night and โ€œhas been at the White House since her removal.โ€ โ€œStill, the presidentโ€™s message has been clear: Trump doesnโ€™t want her around,โ€ said Bade.

"Declaring that no quarter will be given" is specifically prohibited by Art 23 of the Annex to the Hague Convention IV, which means it is a war crime under US domestic law by virtue of the War Crimes Act (18 U.S. Code ยง 2441).

Denial of quarterโ€”even the declaration of no quarterโ€”is a war crime.

And recognized as such by the US Government.

For many Black women, the Target boycott is not over. It may never be. A faith leader announced the end of a yearlong โ€œTarget fast,โ€ but many Black women who helped launch the boycott say the movement wasnโ€™t his to call off.

We spoke to Black women who started the Target boycott & who sustained it for a yr+. They'll likely never go back.

Teacher Laverne Mickens put it like this: โ€œ[Black women] will say if & when itโ€™s over. And I can tell you right now: That will be the 15th of never ever.โ€

An empirically undeniable example of how the legacy media cover Trump more favorably than they covered Biden is how they never express concerns about Trump vacationing every weekend at his Florida resort while they gave Biden total shit over going to Delaware to visit his dead family's graves.

Senate passes major housing affordability bill by Elizabeth Warren and Tim Scott The vote marks a rare bipartisan breakthrough on a major issue. The bill aims to boost housing supply and prevent Wall Street from buying up single-family homes.

Raphael @warnock.senate.gov on Trump & the housing bill: โ€œIf I told you that Tim Scott and Elizabeth Warren walked into a bar, it sounds like the beginning of a bad joke."

"Thereโ€™s overwhelming support in the Senate. Weโ€™re going to get this over the finish line."
